It's funny. With each new pic, I'm loving the Ewok set more and the Pilot set less. R5-D4 with a new name? Lame. Still re-using the old Pilot Luke body? Lame. Ewok set is awesome though, definitely in for multiples of that one.

Those pics are still in the "prototype" stage of things on the pilots, as I can confirm that the one pilot I have seen doesn't look THAT bad, but I'm still tired of the Luke bodies being used. The Alliance isn't made up of entirely short pilots... One or two, fine, but there's barely any average-height guys. There's too short and too tall. Not a lot of in-between. Time for them to get that average-height one out there in good numbers.

I'd have also liked to have seen them take Porkins' Astromech and do something to it to make it unique... It's not seen below the body so a slight deco change like some body striping could've happened, along with red leg marks right? Make something nice and different.

I like the Pilots to get them, but at this point I'm down to one set of them. $'s too tight to spend where I don't want want to, or to spend on fixing figures Hasbro half-assed like these guys.

Thats pretty ridiculous but not surprised. DC Direct is price gouging with their deluxe Arkham Asylum line, i am sure other companies will follow. I really have respect for Marvel Select and their reasonable prices.

I'm definitely digging the Ewok set too, despite having always hated the furry little turds in general. What's next - getting excited over an SA Jar Jar? Kudos to Hasbro for the added variety with the various hoods and such. I assume more than a few of us will be buying a couple sets just to mix and match with these and do some Ewok army building. My excitement over the pilots is rather tempered though, likely due to the oversaturation of them in recent years. Porkins is too skinny as well. I'll probably pick one up though.
